Entry Requirements

Students will normally possess a first degree in the social or natural sciences, or a background that is equivalent, and be able to demonstrate a keen interest in the subject-matter. As places are limited we will select candidates who we consider will make optimal use of the learning experience afforded by the programme, and who will actively co-create the foundations of a “new economy.”

Language requirements

Students must be able to converse and write fluently in English. All applicants who do not hold a GCSE (Grade C or above) in English Language, must provide evidence of their English language ability in the form of a professional English qualification to the correct level.

The University entry standards for English language are detailed here.

Application and supporting documentation

To apply, fill out the Interactive PDF which can be downloaded from the How to Apply page. We require certain supporting documentation to be posted to us. Please check the list here.

Important: On 1 April 2009 changes to the UK’s Immigration Law came into effect. Please ensure that you have a legitimate right of entry into the UK.

Admissions

The College will shortlist applicants for interview. You may be asked to come to the College for an interview, or to conduct a telephone or Skype interview if you are not geographically well placed to come to the College. Subject to interview, we will select our MA and PG Certificate students and offer places.

We will promptly acknowledge receipt of all applications by email. We will contact applicants to either arrange an interview or advise that their application will not be progressed further. We aim to do this within two to three weeks of receipt of an application.
